A rough estimate of doing as much generative AI coding as the CEO of Nvidia recommends : an increase of 2.7x of the global annual emissions footprint for the average person By Boris Gamazaychikov www.linkedin.com/feed/update/...

Gonna be interesting to see a lot of people walk back their support for him. Who am I kidding? The cookers will just say it was planted and it's a conspiracy against him.

I love him when he is all curled up like this deep in sleep. Sleep well, little man. #cats #catsofbsky #kittens #shorthairs

TRUMP: I'm not a rapist. I didn't rape anybody O'DONNELL: Oh, you think he was referring to you?

It cracks me up that a bunch of IRL speedrunners have gotten further inside Scientology than a lot of documentaries.

After scientists exposed wild fish to cocaine and a cocaine metabolite, they observed that, as in the lab, fish on cocaine do not act like normal fish.

Fox News interviewing Fox reporter from the event. Reporter says she was sitting next to Karoline Leavitt's husband. Says he told her: "You need to be safe and he was very serious when he said that to me. Looked around the room and he said..." Call abruptly cuts.

It's true. When I signed up for The Onion subscription they made me send in a a selfie video performing the Baphomet Configuration as shown in the picture below, and repeat the words "I pledge allegiance to Satanas and swear to enact his woke design".

Australia's cyber security co-ordinator just dropped what I think will be a very useful reaction meme

THREAD 🧵 The 2026 Global Report on Food Crises shows that the number of people facing acute food insecurity is growing. Tens of millions of people are at IPC Level 4 or higher levels of hunger, including millions of children and mothers. #Infograph

Apparently the Capital Gains Tax Discount is needed to help boost supply. If only we had 25 years of evidence to see if that happened... www.theguardian.com/business/gro...

3/* I have a strong antipathy towards these tactics. So what is the better approach to oppose and defeat rightwing weapons and their deployments in a very assymetric environment where the other side has significantly more resources (and lack of ethics)? I'm genuinely curious and love to hear ideas

2/* Many of the things the right does is incredibly effective. Jonathan Swift's "Falsehood flies, and the Truth comes limping after it." Comes to mind. But it is fundamentally wrong and antithetical to the ideals of the left and progressives, IMO.

1/* One thing I have been thinking of a bit is where we draw the "they go low, we need to meet them" line. I think the left needs to be a lot more vicious with our attacks and fight fire with fire. But bogus claims (e.g.Trump nuke codes from The Mirror)? Use of things like shadowy FB campaigns?

Throwback to the time this little rascal was truly little and a rascal. #cats #catsofbsky #bskycats

I recommend reading this post, mainly because it's utterly ridiculous that the ABC even ran this story in the first place. Pretty much the equivalent of having some dunce at the pub rant about how EVs are useless.

The ABC's piece was straight out of Morrison's "Labor want to take away your weekend away" campaign and John does a great dissection of it.

Nawwww, so sad for kashno$

These laws are unconstitutional and they deserve to be chucked out. Listen to Executive Officer, Bart Shteinman on PM overnight discussing why the anti-protest laws in QLD and NSW are anti-democratic and it's a good thing they've been struck down in NSW! Full link: www.abc.net.au/listen/progr...

This is easier said than done, I think. But both Ben and Kat have shown themselves, again and again, to fight for their principles. In an age of toxic masculinity and utter misunderstanding of what being a man is, I feel like Ben really encapsulates what I think masculinity is.

A couple points on this manifesto, apart from the racial superiority subtext others noted. Palantir is a company built on public contracts, they bill the state billions to surveil and target the state's population. The manifesto exists to justify their demand for even more. /1

"Welfare for me, rugged individualism for thee" is the motto of big businesses and the rich, and they don't get nearly enough hate for it. Curse the lot of them and anyone who is keen on enriching the filthy rich while demonising and scrutinising the vulnerable.

You mean the superannuation tax breaks? No? You mean the CGT discount? No? You mean the fossil fuel subsidies? No? You mean the free gas for multinationals? No? You mean the failure of the PRRT? No? You mean the tax dodging trusts? No? You mean the lack of a wealth tax? No? No you mean the NDIS FFS

You're hearing it more and more... it's time to tax gas exports! More than 50 community organisations, including ACOSS and Oxfam, are calling for a 25% export tax. Australians are fed up with the gas industry not paying its fair share. ✍ Sign the petition: https://theaus.in/41IwWTa

Overheard in the hospital waiting room: "That doctor is a leftist bastard" "There are different churches, and I'm not saying we are right, but we're not wrong" It was nice of them to speak loud enough the entire waiting room can hear.

“What struck me about Sudan is the sheer level of violence.” Reem Alsalem, United Nations Special Rapporteur on violence against women and girls, tells @mehdirhasan.bsky.social the situation in Sudan is a manifestation of the “lawless order that we live in.” Watch here: zeteo.com/p/did-mass-r...

These "Surrounded" memes are getting out of hand

1/2 Yes, Coal Australia does highly deceptive astroturfing like this. The lobby group is also a funding source for right-wing, Atlas Network-aligned think tanks and advocacy groups [such Advance and IPA], often acting to oppose #ClimateAction. For more on this, follow @lucyham.bsky.social.

Public pension funds in over half of U.S. states hold billions of dollars in Palantir stock, according to @Sludge. Public workers in several of these states, like Maine, New Jersey, New York, and Oregon, are protesting the fact that their pension funds are being funnel to this dangerous company.

BAFTA pulling a trailer for an autobiographical game about surviving sexual assault only hours before it was said to be a part of a showcase is an exceptionally bad look.

Because Australia gives so much of our gas away for free, Japan gets it so cheap that it makes a profit selling it on to other countries! Add your name to the call to impose royalties on all gas exported from Australia ✍️ https://nb.australiainstitute.org.au/collect_gas_royalties

Van Hollen actually seems to be a solid rep. He has been on the right side of a lot of issues and is vocal about it

We have Fact Checked a claim by BP. And it is my sad duty to inform you that BP is correct. A 25% gas export tax *will* raise more tax. Bit of a shock! @thepointau.bsky.social thepoint.com.au/factchecks/2...

And here is the confirmation. He literally quote Samuel L Jackson’s fake Bible verse at a prayer service in the Pentagon. This… I don’t know what to say anymore.

"Peaceful protest is indispensable". Court strikes down Chris Minns illegitimate anti-protest laws. Big win for #freespeech #auspol @sstephanietrann.bsky.social michaelwest.com.au/unconstituti...

Exactly. And the amount of people who also just don't care about suffering. COVID was the tipping point for me giving up faith in humanity.

Great journalism from Sarah Martin - www.theguardian.com/australia-ne...

If you're not watching @moreperfectunion.bsky.social already, then you really should be. www.youtube.com/watch?v=A654... Imagine getting hit up by a company like Polymarket or Kalshi to form a partnership, and then doing due diligence to then produce a scathing take down of the company. Love it

If you paid even a penny in federal income tax last year, you paid more than: Tesla Southwest Disney Live Nation HP United PayPal CVS Health Palantir Citigroup PG&E 3M That's right. They paid $0 in federal income tax. It's time for big corporations to pay their fair share.

I have been saying this for a while. He is still the same person he was in 2016. Anyone who thinks he has changed either hasn't been paying attention, or just enjoyed the less-blatant racism and sexism and ignorance and everything else he is. He is Trump.
